At noon the next day, while Su Mo was eating in the cafeteria, she met the postman delivering the letter.
The man saw Su Mo and stepped forward and said, "Su Zhiqing, there is a package from Comrade Lu Boxing at the post office. Go pick it up when you get off work."
If the package was not big, he could take it with him when delivering the letter, but the package was not small and it would be inconvenient for him to ride a bicycle. He happened to have seen Su Mo riding a donkey cart to work several times, so he asked her to pick it up.
"And your letter and remittance advice." The postman found Su Mo's letter and remittance advice and gave them to her.
The remittance slip is for January's manuscript fee, which is only 15 yuan. It seems that the struggle is still fierce, and the manuscript fee is less than last month.
She sincerely hopes that her editor-in-chief can achieve final victory. After all, the leader of a certain country is about to visit China, and she also wants to get some translation manuscripts for translation.
Afraid that the people at the post office would be off work, Su Mo went there a little early and picked up the remittance and parcels.
When Li Yue'e came to pick up Su Mo, she saw that she was holding a large package and quickly came down to help her put it in the car.
"Did your aunt send this to you?" That's how many things were sent to you.
"No, this is my package." Su Mo said.
Li Yue'e was stunned: "It should be from that leader." This year's package was more than double the size of previous years.
She thought that the third child would not send it this year because of his connections. In previous years, it would arrive early.
When Li Yue'e went back, the children saw that she was holding a big package, and they all came out of the house to watch.
They also know that this is sent to the great-grandfather, and it comes every year. There are so many delicious things in it.
Seeing the children blinking and looking at each other, Lu Boxing asked Lu Qing'an to open the package.
The Lu family hall is also equipped with 40W lights, so it is very bright.
Lu Qing'an took out things one by one and put them on the table. There were milk powder, condensed milk, candies, cans, bacon, sausages and other food, as well as tea and cigarettes. These are similar to previous years, but the number is more than double.
There are also two more pieces of cloth than in previous years, a military coat, and a pair of shoes with fleece inside.
Lu Qing'an took out the letter from his military coat and handed it to Lu Boming, with confusion in his eyes.
Why are there suddenly so many more than in previous years? What does this mean?
After Lu Boming read the letter, he patted Lu Qing'an with a smile and said, "It's okay, just keep it. You gave birth to a good son."
The leader originally sent his confidant Secretary Cen to Shuangshan City with the intention of controlling this place, but after so many years, the results were not great.
Regarding the gold mine, Secretary Cen was pushed, and Lu Changzheng and Geng Changqing joined forces to rectify Qingxi County, giving Secretary Cen a lot of help, allowing him to seize the opportunity to take control in one fell swoop.
The leader sent so many things this time to thank Lu Changzheng and the others for their great help.
Lu Qing'an breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't just want to break off the relationship.
Although they don't want to trouble the leader, it is always good to have this relationship. With a backer behind them, they always feel more at ease.
Lu Boming asked Li Yue'e to open the bag of candy and divide it among his five great-grandchildren.
After sending the child away, Lu Boming said to Li Yue'e: "Keep this milk powder and condensed milk and bring it to Xiao Mo after she gives birth."
How could she feed two of them alone? She would definitely have to drink milk powder and the like.
"Just keep these tea leaves and cigarettes." They will come in handy when there is a relationship.
"For other meals, you divide it into four portions, one for each family."
"I gave this military coat to the Long March. He gave this year's coat to Xiao Mo. I think the one he wears is still old."
"Two pieces of cloth, one for you and Qing'an. The woolen shoes are men's, for Qing'an to wear."
Lu Qing'an waved his hand, "Dad, I have shoes. These shoes are warm. You can wear them."
"I don't go out often. I'm afraid your cotton shoes won't be warm anymore. Just wear them."
Lu Qingan was a little tearful. His father was concerned about him and noticed that his cotton shoes were no longer warm.
Li Yue'e divided the things according to Lu Boming's request and sent them to each family.
Lu Weiguo felt a little envious when he saw Li Yue'e taking the military coat and going to the third son's house.
He rides a bicycle to work every day. It's fine when it's not windy, but it's really cold when it's windy. He actually wants a military coat.
The third child sent back two pieces before, one for me and one for dad. He also thought that if he got a new one, he would ask them to replace the old one.
Now it seems that this is not possible.

Su Mo is processing wild ginseng at home at the moment. The three remaining ginseng she dug out earlier have been stimulated by her powers during this period. The age of the remaining ginseng is probably no worse than the one given to Lu Boxing.
She planned to dispose of the wild ginseng and give it to Geng Changqing as a gift that year.
Hearing Li Yue'e coming, Su Mo quickly put the things into the space.
"Mom, why did you bring so many things?" Su Mo was a little surprised to see her bring so many things.
"Your master told me, I will do things according to his instructions." Li Yue'e said, "This military coat is for the third child."
Li Yue'e put the food on the table, took out a plaid dress from her military coat, and said, "Xiao Mo, this is the dress my mother made for you. You can try it on to see if it fits you."
"Mom, I have a lot of clothes. Why did you make them for me again? You can keep them for yourself."
Li Yue'e gave her an angry look, "You are only allowed to knit a sweater for my mother, but my mother is not allowed to make a dress for you? Try it on and see if it fits you."
Su Mo took off her cotton-padded jacket and tried it on.
This is a coat imitating Lenin's style. The details in all aspects are very well handled. Su Mo's dress fits perfectly, simple and elegant.
"Mom, it fits well and looks good, thank you." Su Mo said.
This dress is really good. It looks simple, but the cut is actually very smooth. I have to say that Li Yuee is worthy of being a tailor's daughter.
"As long as you like it." Li Yue'e was also satisfied. She hadn't made a piece of clothing so seriously for a long time.
Such good clothes only look good if they are worn by good-looking people.
"By the way, Xiao Mo, the team will kill the New Year pig tomorrow. If you want to buy something, I'll ask your father to buy it." Li Yue'e said.
The brigade kept 6 big fat pigs for the New Year this year. Everyone has a lot of money to share this year. If there is any meat left after dividing the meat, everyone will definitely buy some.
Xiao Mo has to go to work again, and when she comes back, she may not have any bones left.
She wants to send her away, and there won’t be any good meat when she comes back. Let the old guy come forward. After all, the branch secretary is here, so he can buy some good meat.
Su Mo directly paid 10 yuan to Li Yue'e and said, "Let dad watch over the purchases. If there are good ones, buy them. If they are not good, buy some ribs."
Speaking of pigs, I still have two large wild boars in my own space. I need to find time for Lu Changzheng to kill them, and then I can eat the meat slowly.
Li Yue'e went back and told Su Mo's needs. Just when Lu Qing'an was about to agree, Lu Boming spoke first.
"I'll buy it for her tomorrow."
Li Yue'e was happy. With her father's prestige in the brigade, she was guaranteed to be able to buy good meat.
